Drunken Hearted Boy (March 13, 1971 - Second Show) Songtext
von The Allman Brothers Band

from The Fillmore Concerts

Well, yes, people I am a poor, drunken hearted boy.
Well, yeah, people I am a poor, drunken hearted boy.
I have a whole ocean of trouble,
And just a little, half pint of joy.

I drink because I′m worried, I don't drink because I′m dry.
I know if I keep on drinkin, I'm liable to drink away my life.
But that's alright.


Baby, bring me another half-a-pint,
I′m trying to drown these blues, yes I am.
People if you had my trouble,
Baby, I know you′d be drinkin too.

Alright.
Baby, bring me some Old Grandad's 100 proof.
Don′t play like that man, you'll make me thirsty.
Oh, Lord.

Baby, if I keep on drinkin, I know I can′t last too long.
Woman, if I keep on drinkin, people ya know I can't last too long.
That′s alright, cause when I'm dead and buried,
Please think about me when you hear this song.
